Here's another update on the Hitler Mystery Badge challenges
Of the ten we started with, only two remain unsolved
You've done a great job thus far!
Lets examine the final two in closer detail (badge no. 4 and no. 5)
Mystery Badge no. 4
On his pocket, a shield-shaped badge
Photo taken sometime between 1933 July and 1934 July
A library source claims the photographer was Bochum B. Muthherr
There appears to be only one photograph of this one
Here are several versions of that photo, including a negative print,
hopefully showing more detail.

and.........
Mystery Badge no. 5
Above his pocket: he wears a circular or oval-shaped badge, with a
flower stuck inside it
From a film clip 1933 circa, but dated no later than 1934 July
Possibly a speech given at a Nuremberg church
Here is a link to a brief video clip and gif made of it:

There appear to be a few Reichsheer officers with him including a
general wearing a full ribbon bar, perhaps someone can identify them or
the SS officer behind Hitler, I don't think its Schaub
status: unsolved
[ PS: for anyone following this investigation, it turns out the answer to
Mystery Badge no. 7, actually turned out to be Badge no. 9 !! ]
If anyone has suggestions re better forums to place this post, to identify
others in the clip, or to identify the speech via audio heard in the clip,
please inform here
Feel free to copy this post this into any area you think will help resolve
these mysteries.
Good Luck!
